About My Clients

I work well with clients who are not sure they are sold on the idea that counseling can actually help. I have a great deal of experience with first responders, veterans, and healthcare workers. I like the skeptical clients. Sessions tend to feel like a surprisingly normal conversation that actually leaves you with new insight and awareness to help move toward your goals one step at a time.

My Background and Approach

I am a generalist who will meet you where you are to tailor individual support for you. We work together with a solution-focused approach to meet your goals and needs. I use a variety of methods, but if I had to choose a favorite -Cognitive Processing Therapy would be my go to. My strengths are in helping you find yours. Empowerment and Encouragement are the tools I like best.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe in the respect and dignity of all people. Being human is hard enough, we all need support sometimes to help us through transitions to our best chapters of our story yet.
